It is form attribute autocomplete="off" and autocomplete="some string" for input field disabled

<form autocomplete="off">
    <input id="email" autocomplete="email" name="email" type="email">
</form>

So the problem is that autocomplete="off" is largely ignored in modern browsers - primarily due to password managers etc.. In your case autocomplete="disabled" is working because your browser doesn't recognize this value. So you may be happy that random value works for you as this solution sometimes doesn't work either.
